Living far from home has its own kind of weight. The guilt of missing important moments. The loneliness that doesn't go away even when life looks good on the outside. The strange feeling of loving where you came from and loving where you are now, and not fully belonging to either.
When you're an immigrant, the everyday comes with extra. Feeling overwhelmed, anxious or exhausted while trying to make everything work, and often doing it quietly, because the people around you don't always understand it.
I know what that feels like. I'm an immigrant too. That's part of why I do this work.
I'm Nanda. I have a degree in Psychology from Brazil and I'm a registered counsellor in Australia (ACA). I work online with adults who have been living abroad for a while and are ready to understand what they're actually carrying, not to be told what to do, but to find what genuinely makes sense for them.
I've seen therapy change people's lives. Including mine. If you're wondering whether this could be helpful, that's reason enough to reach out. I offer a free introductory call.
